Answer:
Half-wave rectifier converts an AC signal into a DC signal. It's called a half-wave because it only rectify the positive part of an AC signal.
AC Signal = An electrical signal that alternates between positive and negative voltage.
DC Signal = An electrical signal that only has positive voltage.
Rectify = A fancy word for converting something.
Adding a capacitor helps the positive part of the signal stay on longer. This work because the capacitor stores energy kinda like a battery. During the negative part of the AC signal, the energy stored in the capacitor will be drained and used, then the cycle repeats.
The load resistor is just there to prevent a short circuit from happening.
Answer:
the net work per cycle Btu per cycle
the power developed by the engine, W = 88.0144746 hp
Explanation:
the information given includes;
diameter of the four-cylinder bore = 3.7 in
length of the stroke = 3.4 in
The clearance volume = 16% = 0.16
The cylindrical volume
the crankshaft N rotates at a speed of 2400 RPM.
At the beginning of the compression , temperature = 60 F = 519.67 R
and;
Otto cycle with a pressure = 14.5 lbf/in² = (14.5 × 144 ) lb/ft²
= 2088 lb/ft²
The maximum temperature in the cycle is 5200 R
From the given information; the change in volume is:
the mass in air ( lb) can be determined by using the formula:
where;
R = 53.3533 ft.lbf/lb.R°
m = 0.0018962 lb
From the tables of ideal gas properties at Temperature 519.67 R
At state of volume 2; the relative volume can be determined as:
The specific energy at
is 184.7 Btu/lb
From the tables of ideal gas properties at maximum Temperature T = 5200 R
To determine the relative volume at state 4; we have:
The specific energy at
is 591.84 Btu/lb
Now; the net work per cycle can now be calculated as by using the following formula:
Btu per cycle
the power developed by the engine, in horsepower. can be calculated as follows;
In the four-cylinder, four-stroke internal combustion engine; the power developed by the engine can be calculated by using the expression:
where ;
N' = 1200 cycles/min
N' = 1200 cycles/60 seconds
N' = 20 cycles/sec
W = 4 × 20 cycles/sec × 0.777593696
W = 62.20749568 Btu/s
W = 88.0144746 hp
